Ingredients: Makes two sandwiches
¼ cup Mayonnaise
2 tbsp Dark Miso Paste
1 tbsp Gochujang Paste (you can sub in Sriracha if you can’t find Gochujang)
1 tbsp Rice Wine Vinegar
2 cups Cooked and Cooled Wild BC Salmon – broken into bigger chunks
4 strips Thick Cut Bacon
1 Heirloom Tomato – Sliced 1/4” thick
1 Avocado – Halved and sliced thin
Fresh Pepper
4 Butter Lettuce Leaves or Frisee Lettuce
4 Pieces Sour Dough Bread – Toasted
3 tbsp Butter
Other Add Ons
Watermelon Radish
Cucumber
Roasted Red Peppers
Shallots or Red Onion
Directions
Add the Mayo, Miso, Gochujang, and Vinegar to a bowl. Use a whisk and mix well. Reserve roughly 4 tbsp of the Umami Mayo. To the bowl, add the Wild BC Salmon and mix well with the rest of the dressing. Set aside.
Toast the bread and butter it. Place on the avocado and pepper it. Add about half of the Umami dressed salmon to this, and top with two pieces of bacon. Place on the tomato next and then the lettuce of choice. Drizzle with the reserved dressing. Top with the 2nd piece of toast and cut in half!
